Rafizi working at Economy Ministry 'as normal', says aide


PETALING JAYA: Datuk Seri Rafizi Ramli is at work in his office at the Economy Ministry, amidst speculation he will step down from his Cabinet post after losing the PKR deputy presidency in the recent party polls.

Rafizi's press secretary Farhan Iqbal confirmed that Rafizi had returned to his normal routine at the ministry.

"Yes, he went to his office as usual today," Farhan told Sinar Harian when contacted on Monday (May 26).

On May 7, Rafizi said he would be ready to step down from his party and Cabinet posts if he lost his deputy president post in the PKR elections on May 24.

He said that he would then return to being a grassroots level leader and campaign intensively for the party.

Rafizi was defeated by Nurul Izzah Anwar for the PKR deputy president's post in the party polls.
